Help 2.0 or NetHelp

When True, generates a separate HTML file for each topic. When False, generates a single HTML file containing a named anchor for each topic.

This property can be set as default in the Project Settings properties pane. Modifying this property for an individual document will override the global settings for that document only.

HTML Help

When the SplitFile and the related SplitFileWithHHCtrl properties are True, a single HTML file is generated using intrinsic HTML Help commands to give the appearance of separate HTML files for each topic. When the SplitFile property is True and the SplitFileWithHHCtrl property is False, a separate HTML file is generated for each topic in the document.

This property can be set as default in the Project Settings properties pane. Modifying this property for an individual document will override the global settings for that document only.
